I’ve already watched the first Gilmore Girlsepisode, and there are only three more in this first “Season” (we don’t know if there will be more!); I’ll be done by the end of the weekend. That’s what binge-watching is all about.

Saturday will be another day of family togetherness. My second son and his daughter will come through town, to join the few of us who will be here. We’re meeting at Yard House,a new place for our little group. Many of our usual young adults are heading back to university campuses.

It is finally cool enough to say it’s fall. The temperature has been in the 50s and 60s. Finally! I like turning the heater on instead of the AC.

The PG&E bill is much lower, too. Good things all around. Now we just have to prime for the Christmas holiday…followed by Tax Season…Ugh.

Ooh those sound like nice temps for a change. It’s been downright cold here, in the 30’s… brr. Definitely November here in Michigan. I love binge watching but haven’t been doing much of it? It’s been more movies with the holiday and all. I need to binge this weekend. 🙂 And four books? Wow, go you.

While You Were Sleeping looks good and intense, I’ve been seeing a lot of people reading it lately. Makes me want to maybe give it a shot.

Thanks, Emma, and I don’t know why it took me so long to get to The Gilmore Girls…it was on Netflix before I started bingeing on it….but now I just love Lorelai and Rory…and their various adventures. But most of all…their banter is so much fun. Plus, there are lots of quirky characters living in Stars Hollow. Some will annoy you, of course, but that’s life in a small town.

Hope you enjoy it…I only watched the first episode of the revival last night, as it was getting late. Enjoy your week! Thanks for visiting.

Four books is great!!! We just watched the second episode of GG this morning and hopefully will finish this weekend too. If it was just me I would be done for sure but my husband is watching with me so a little trickier. Enjoy your new books and have a great week!

Whag great ohana time you have planned. I’ve been busy with sick kids so not much TV watching here, but we started catching up on Project Runway, Season 15. In the past we’ve always as an ohana watched episodes while eating dinner. Me and the girls just came back from the library and each of us dames brought home a stack. I only meant to pick up a hold but had to roll by the New Fiction section. I have fun doing that. I use my GR app to scan bar codes as some of the eye-catching covers are further into a series and I don’t like reading one out of order.

Mmmmm… pomegranate martini. It sounds wonderful. I was a diehard cosmo girl until I had a French martini and now that is my go to. I do like to have holiday themed and specialty martinis too, though. Happy to hear you were able to touch base with family over the holiday. Have a wondeful week. 🙂

Thanks, La La, time with family can heal a lot of wounds…even if we don’t agree on a lot of things! LOL.

Pomegranate martinis have been my favorites for a while. But only one place in my neighborhood makes them just right. So that’s where I go for that particular obsession. I’ve never really liked cosmos…

Glad you enjoyed the Gilmore Girls – it’s rather slid by me, but then these days apart from a couple of quiz shows and Strictly Come Dancing, I don’t watch much TV. You’ve clearly had a great week reading and blogging – we are still having much milder weather than usual for the time of year, though the wind is blowing with something of an edge, making it feel a lot colder. But so far this year, it’s been amazing – long may it continue! Have a great week – my Sunday Post –https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2016/11/27/sunday-post-27th-november-2016/

Thanks, Sarah, I finished bingeing when I got home….and it was perfect to curl up and watch, with the rain pounding outside. It was a sudden and windy rain, so getting inside was the antidote.

Enjoy your week, and thanks for stopping by. Sometimes it’s hard to find just the right TV shows. I love Sunday night shows here, as we have: Divorce, Madame Secretary, Secrets and Lies, and The Affair. A bonanza!

Are you getting the rain we are? We finally turned on our heater last night. I hope you are enjoying your visit with your family. Today we are putting up the indoor Christmas decorations. I want to get some of the presents wrapped as well. I hope you have a great week, Laurel-Rain!

It’s cold in Sacramento so it’s finally feeling like winter here too. I never watched The Gilmore Girls but I do want to binge on Netflix. It’s so easy to catch up now that most shows are somewhere online. We had my husband’s family gathering today, so I know how it is to have multiple celebrations during the holidays. I hope you had a nice time with your family and enjoy the books you have planned for this week. Have a great week!

Hmm I never really watched the Gilmore Girls but I see a lot of excitement about the recent come back of it. I saw the Amanda Prowse book somewhere else as well last week. I like her – well at least the couple of books I read. So now you are having Autumn weather and we are having Spring and very blustery here!

Thanks for visiting, Kathryn, and I didn’t “get” the Gilmore Girls phenomenon until I actually started watching it on Netflix…and then I was hooked. Their banter, their obsessions, the quirky town…all of it kept me glued to the screen. The comeback was great…but left me wanting more. Sort of like turkey stuffing. LOL.

Isn’t it weird how that happens, Melinda? I’ve actually picked up books in the bookstore and thought they sounded good…only to realize later that I already have the book. That doesn’t happen often, thankfully. Enjoy your week!

Looking forward to your thoughts on The Other Widow! I didn’t have time to watch the new Gilmore Girls over the weekend. Hoping to do so eventually. This is such a busy time of year and now a couple of unexpected things are moving it down my list. Enjoy the Fall temps. We’re starting the slide to winter…

Sounds like you had a great weekend! Yummy martini & pot roast. How did you like the Gilmore Girls finale? Will there be more? Lately my husband has me watching The Crown tv series. So far I’m lukewarm on it. Enjoy your books & week!

Little Deaths sounds amazing and I cannot wait to get into the Gilmore Girls revival although I still need to rewatch most of Gilmore Girls xD and I’m so jealous of your avid posting, I really need to get back into the game! Thank you for stopping by my blog and sorry for the late return 😀

No worries, Juli, I love getting visitors through the week. I think Little Deaths sounds good, too, and can’t wait to read it. There are so many books on my stacks that I have a hard time picking what to read next. Thanks for visiting.
